Seungmin

Han

Han

Y/N

Jeongin

Han
Soo are the rumors about ya true?

Y/N
What rumors?


Han
You know...like the one where your parents brought you here so you can avenge the- OW!


Seungmin
Do you have any sense?

Y/N
Huh?


Jeongin
HAN is one of our top students.


Han
Why'd you say my name like that- Wait don't just change the subjec-


Seungmin
Yeah, he's not as easy as he appears.


Han
What?!

Y/N
Oh! Speaking of which, what magic do you guys use?


Seungmin
I specialize in earth magic but I've been studying plant manipulation recently.


Han
I use venom magic.

Y/N
What? Poison?


Han
Why are you scooting away-


Jeongin
Heheh, I use water magic.

Y/N
Oh wow...why does it kind of feel like your abilities took over your bodies...?

Y/N
I don't know how to word it but Seungmin for example totally looks like an earth user.


Seungmin
Well, we've become one with our elements.


Han
I just dyed my hair.


Seungmin
...siGhh

Y/N
...So I learned nothing from that class.


Jeongin
Heheh...but you should listen to the professor and meditate daily. It's what we did too.

Y/N
Alright, alright. What's my next class anyways...?

I pulled out my schedule to take a look at it, the other boys glancing over it as well.


Jeongin
Ah...


Han
Woah Y/N. W o a h.

Y/N
What?


Han
W o a h bro-

Y/N
Wh- WHAT IS IT?!


Seungmin
You have THAT class.

Y/N
What class?!


Seungmin
The class where the two idiots are always bickering with each other. They get dragged to the headmaster's on a daily basis.


Jeongin
Mhmmm, a few years ago they got in trouble for completely wrecking the school! We couldn't have class for a couple months!

Y/N
What?! Just who ARE these guys?!


Han
You'll see when we get there. See ya guys, I'm taking Y/N with me since we have class together.


Seungmin
Good luck..


Jeongin
Bye Y/N! Come find us during lunch okay?

Y/N
Um...Him?


Han
Yeah?

Y/N
Do you know something about my parents?


Han
...Uh, yeah I guess. To be honest though I wouldn't ponder over it too much.

I glanced up at the purple-haired boy for a moment before looking at the ground frowning. How could I not...?


Han
Find your pace.

Y/N
Huh?


Han
Find your own pace. You're you, not your parents. Yeah?

Han's deep purple eyes pierced through my soul as he gazed down at me. Somehow those words were able to comfort me.

BOOOOOMM

Y/N
...What was that?!

??
I told you to keep it down!
